    Drazen Petrovich - I was so bummed when they traded him but he was too good to come off the bench behind Clyde

    So... how many blazers have there been? Whole lotta names here.
    I guess to ask that question I have to define what I mean: I mean players who played at least one minute in one regular season game for the Blazers. Anyone have that number?

    Basketball reference lists 303 players who have played at least one minute for the Blazers. Reviewing this, I'm guessing that Bill Stricker and his 2 minutes played in 1971 might be the most forgotten Blazer.

    The dunk over Patrick Ewing was pretty special.

    I love trivia, and nothing is more trivial than the list of totally minor Blazers.

    I saw that and thought the same thing. That was 1999...I should remember that.
